One of the most ambitious works of paranormal investigation of our time,

here is an unprecedented compendium of pre-twentieth-century UFO accounts,

written with rigor and color by two of today's leading investigators of unexplained phenomena.

In Wonders in the Sky, respected researchers Jacques Vallee and Chris Aubeck examine

more than 500 selected reports of sightings from biblical-age antiquity

through the year 1879-the point at which the Industrial Revolution deeply changed

the nature of human society, and the skies began to open to airplanes, dirigibles, rockets,

and other opportunities for misinterpretation represented by military prototypes.

Using vivid and engaging case studies, and more than seventy-five illustrations,

they reveal that unidentified flying objects have had a major impact not only on popular culture

but on our history, on our religion, and on the models of the world humanity

has formed from deepest antiquity.
